Vol. 566 No. 1

Written Answers. - Registration of Title.

Michael Ring

Question:

625 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the position with regard to a section 49 application for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo; and when this transaction will be completed. [11656/03]

I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that this is an application under section 49, i.e. acquisition of title by virtue of long possession, of the Registration of Titles Act 1964 which was lodged on 14 May 2002. Dealing Number D2002SM004682G refers. I am further informed that queries issued to the lodging solicitor on 18 November 2002 and that the application cannot proceed until the queries raised are satisfactorily resolved. I understand that due to their complicated nature, applications under section 49, which require detailed examination of claims for registration as owners, can take some time to process. Accordingly it is not possible to estimate a completion date at this stage. However, I can assure the Deputy that on receipt of a satisfactory reply the matter will receive further attention in the Land Registry.
